It was back to Mundelein Seminary for The Rector’s Mass and riding shotgun was Fr. Tom. My friend and confidant came along to visit his campus where He was ordained over 50 years ago.

Fr. John Kartje’s homily as always was awesome, “God wants to invite us to a wedding feast and we should be dressed for it”. It’s not our attire, but our commitment to Him.

After all the years my friend, The Good Priest has been passionate to His vocation and it was good to see young seminarians ready to make their vows to The Church. Without seminaries there wouldn’t be Priests and without Priests there wouldn’t be Churches. Thank God for the men who follow their calling and devote their lives to keep The Universal Church alive and well.
